I ripped an upper ball joint boot when I was taking it off of a 99 silverado. Can I just go to the parts store/gm and get a new rubber boot?

if u can find someone to sell just the boot, let me know also

my local dealer said no
and napa and partsamerica.com =no

Eh, since it's a '99 it probably has some mileage on it. I'd just replace the entire joint. Not that hard, not that expensive.
